What if your next layoff—or decision to walk away—could lead to your greatest breakthrough? In this episode of Inner Peace, Better Health, host Shreya is joined by Pav Lertjitbanjong, founder of LayoffReady.com and a top MBA who left her corporate career at 43—not because she had to, but because she planned for it. Pav shares how personal crises like divorce and the loss of a loved one sparked a radical shift, pushing her to redefine success, reclaim her time, and layoff-proof her life. Learn how to calculate your “freedom number,” reduce your financial dependence, and build the courage to create your next chapter—on your terms.

Key Takeaways:

• You don’t need a trust fund to retire early—know your survival, FU, and FIRE numbers.

• Layoff-proofing is about creating options, not just job security.

• Courage over comfort: small, consistent steps create big freedom.

• Mental health, sleep, and clarity are worth more than job titles.

• Walking away is not failure—it’s a planned pivot to peace.
